Sports Day fun!
Last Thursday our Katuuso and Mbazzi schools came together to celebrate end of term with a lively Sports Day at Katuuso! The images below tell the story of the day's activities and the joy the kids, parents, teachers and staff all felt throughout the day. Enjoy!
A new group of vocational training ladies at Katuuso!
We recently started our second vocational training program with five new ladies coming to learn the tailoring trade with our Kumi team in Katuuso. Our Head Tailor Winnie and three of our experienced Kumi tailors - Rose, Nalongo and Grace - will teach the course. Over the next five weeks the ladies will learn new skills including garment construction, accessories and product costing and sales. When finished the ladies will receive a certificate of completion and help to find employment within the local community or beyond.
